[R-sig-Geo] Long time listener, first time caller

[lancelot]

Dear Robert,

Working with:

 > sessionInfo()
R version 2.13.1 (2011-07-08)
Platform: i386-pc-mingw32/i386 (32-bit)

locale:
[1] LC_COLLATE=French_France.1252  LC_CTYPE=French_France.1252
[3] LC_MONETARY=French_France.1252 LC_NUMERIC=C
[5] LC_TIME=French_France.1252

attached base packages:
[1] stats     graphics  grDevices utils     datasets  methods   base

other attached packages:
[1] raster_1.8-42  sp_0.9-84      fortunes_1.4-2

loaded via a namespace (and not attached):
[1] grid_2.13.1     lattice_0.19-30 tools_2.13.1


The issue is not specific to the GUI. I also see it with Rterm. I'm 
seeing the white lines on the windows() device (screen), as well as on 
jpeg, png, and postscript devices (though much finer lines for the 
latter). Conversely, pdf outputs don't seen to have the problem (also 
tested with other raster images).

All the best,

Renaud
